Home Equals Family

Home has a different meaning for everyone. For some, home is simply their house, and for others, it might just be their local church. Home is what makes us who we are today. For me, home is wherever I'm with my family. Be it the park, or even a jungle, my family provides the comfort, stability, and health that I need. For my entire life, my family has supported me unconditionally. They helped me with my studies, piano, dance etc. Every time I fall down, my family always lifts me back up, no matter what. Whenever I feel sick, my family never hesitates on canceling their workday, and would always search up for amazing home remedies to get me back up on my feet, more energized than ever! Spending time with my family at my house is what makes me feel at home. Resting at a luxurious resort in Mexico for 2 weeks also felt like home... not because of the marble tiles at the hotel, or because of the bright, soft pink chairs, but because I spent it with my mom, dad, and brother. Family is the amusement of the house, the reason why I smile everytime I come home. Without family, I would not have met such amazing friends present in my life now! I also wouldn’t be in such an amazing school ( River Oaks ). If I ever try to imagine what home would look like without my family, I'd go blank. That is why home to me means family.
